We’ve got to be ambitious 
every Derby team that ever got promoted was in the past. 
it’s a good place to be a positive mind set.
With an owner that is ambitious and wants success because he’s a fan, and because he’s intimated that there is a Championship investor lined up, I think we will surprise a few.
it all depends on the quality of the signings and how they integrate and settle-in to the squad/area/expectations
im betting on Derby strengthening with top end Championship additions. 
 
I think we’ll do very well indeed, without knowing who these additions will be but since I’m expecting some high quality, I’m going for a top six finish. We’re on an upward curve, the crap is firmly pushed behind us. COYR 😃

I heard the same at choir practice. Everyone was in tears. Some of his sermons were awe inspiring. 

He’s still a lot taller than Les Green.

It will be even worse when we’re in the Champions League 😁

Ah yes, good old Leeds - couldn't sell out their away allocation at QPR last Friday (half a stand empty if you see the telly pictures) & definite drop off in parking around mine as they're unlikely to go up today. Their support is the biggest myth in English football.
Am interested to see how we get on with away numbers next season. A combination of new grounds to visit, suppressed supply with tiny away ends & a fantastic away record meant demand was as high as I've ever seen it this season just gone. Now we've got bigger away ends & a better spread of clubs in the North/Midlands but telly moving kick off times everywhere & inevitable drop off of away form against better opposition. To be fair, I won't miss the panic of trying to book tickets at 10am along with hundreds of others!

If it's true what they say about "Leeds taking more", I say we ignore any reference to a reciprocal deal... As any such deal clearly suits their fans more than others.
... Allow them to charge our visiting 2k fans* £50* each.  We charge their 4k* visiting fans £60*.
DCFC reimburse a tenner to each of our 2k, leaving 2k @ £10 for DCFC coffers.
Win, win, throw yer twirly scarves in the bin!

Last seasons thread seemed fairly popular with over one hundred thousand views so I thought I’d try and find out a bit of what we can expect for next season.
As we know, because they told us so, nobody has more away fans than Leeds so I have looked at their away ticket allocations and prices they were charged for the season now ending.
Interestingly they had a reciprocal agreement with a few clubs to set the price for both sets of fans so I have noted this accordingly.
Obviously we don’t know exactly who we are playing yet but I will try and amend this when we have the final tables.
 I have noted the full allocation and adult and over 65 price.
Leeds I have based on what Southampton fans are paying.
Ipswich. 2,000.  £34/ £27
Leeds. 2.018. £47. Cheaper with clubs with reciprocal deals.
Southampton. 2,825. £30/ £25.
Norwich. 2,022. 36/26 reciprocal.
WBA. 2,009. £28/ £23.
Hull. 2,083. £24/ £16.
Middlesbo. 2,571. £29/ £ 21.
Coventry. 2,529. £37/ £32.
Preston. 5,644. £28/ £20 reciprocal.
Bristol City. 3,000. £30/ £26.
Cardiff. 3,213. £21/ £16 reciprocal.
Swansea. 1,971. £34/ £21.
Watford. 2,104. £20/ £10.
Sunderland. 2,000. £29/ £26. reciprocal.
Millwall. 2,008. £32/ £22.
QPR. 1,816. £31/ £22.
Stoke. 2,604. £25/ £19. reciprocal.
Blackburn. 7,337. £30/ £24.
Sheff Wed. 3,869. £36/ £26.
Plymouth. 1,734. £26/ £21.
Birmingham. 2,227. £30/ £25 reciprocal.
 

Pretty much what Sunderland, Sheff Wed, Ipswich, Leeds, Forest, Southampton and Charlton all thought at one time or another. Good luck with that.

The polish national Manager will be up in arms, poor little Krystian, what a tragedy . . . 
Also, unlucky Lee - jumping ship for those sunny uplands of Birmingham doesn’t seem so bright now, does it. 
And finally to the Birmingham fans, enjoy league one lads, it’s absolutely soul sucking 

😄😄😄

I love a bit of hardcore sarcasm..

Got to love the 2,000 Norwich fans baiting the home crowd with 
"Que sera sera
Whatever will be will be
You're going to Shrewsbury 
Que sera sera"
🤣

Thanks Wayne.  Once a Ram etc 

Let's not forget as well that they've announced a new stadium:

If they're building a 60,000 capacity stadium they'd better hope that Stevenage and Burton bring a big away support 
 

We're all having a party 🎶

Great season. Birmingham down, Wycombe still in league one, Leeds bottle it, Middlesbrough close but not good enough, Forest fighting relegation and buggered with FFP

Is the freedom of Derby back on the table.....?
Brilliant work by Agent Rooney.

Rooooooney

Who's having the party now Small Heath? 🤣
Makes our promotion all the sweeter swapping places with those nobbers. Did everything possible to revel in our misery that day both inside & outside the ground. Dreadful support & belong with other tinpot garbage like Reading, Peterborough & Wycombe.
Penny for Bielik & Buchanan's thoughts 😆

Birmingham Relegated on 50 points, shows how competitive the champ is and how we need to adapt after 2 years away

Well, they got out of the league. Mission accomplished.

For a player that doesn't want to be in L1 Bielik seems to end up there quite a lot.

Me driving through Brum!
